Our lab fuses electrophysiology and stem cell biology in order to explore how abnormal physiology contributes to diseases of the motor and sensory nervous systems. We use primary mouse motor neurons as well as motor neurons derived from human induced...
Our group is devoted to investigating the way in which the functional, chemical and structural plasticity of neurons contributes both to the normal function and diseases of the nervous system. Our major efforts are devoted to the study of somatosensory...

Our group investigates the multifaceted influence of light on mammals. How does the retina produce visual information? How is this information processed within the brain for functions that are as diverse as perception and the regulation of circadian...
Re-engineering memory circuits to restore cognition in brain disorders
Adaptively responding to the environment is critical to optimal navigation of our world. The hippocampus plays a critical role in this process by generating memories of our...
